Curious George (2006) s05e09 Episode Script

Windmill Monkey

(THEME SONG PLAYING)
George!
NARRATOR: In spring,
good gardeners can't wait
to get things growing.
(CHATTERING)
Need any more help?
Okay, I have to go
help Professor Wiseman
design her new terrarium.
Bye, George!
NARRATOR: George had
his seed system set.
First, he dug a hole,
then, he planted some seeds,
and then he covered the hole.
Compass had
a seed system too.
But he didn't plant seeds,
he ate them.
He thought it was
awfully nice of George
to put out a pigeon buffet.
(COMPASS COOING)
(GASPS)
(COOS)
(CHATTERING)
(COOING)
(CHATTERING ANGRILY)
NARRATOR:
Compass thought this
restaurant had weird rules.
(CHATTERING)
Maybe they weren't
supposed to eat the seeds
until George was finished.
(COOING)
(CHATTERS)
(COOING)
(GASPS)
(EXCLAIMING)
(CHATTERING LOUDLY)
Or maybe you weren't
supposed to eat
while George was around.
(CHATTERING)
(COOS)
(COOING)
(COOING)
(RUSTLING)
Huh?
(GASPS)
(GASPS LOUDLY)
(SHRIEKING)
(EXCLAIMS)
Uh-oh.
(SHRIEKING)
Huh. (GASPS)
(SCREAMING)
(PANTING)
NARRATOR: George wished
there were two of him.
And then he remembered.
Farmer Renkins protected
his garden from the birds
with a scarecrow.
(EXCLAIMS)
So George decided
to make a scarecrow too.
(HUMMING)
(CHUCKLING)
(WHOOPING)
Only, it wasn't very scary.
(SIGHS)
(CHATTERING)
(COOING)
(SIGHS IN FRUSTRATION)
(SIGHS)
Hmm.
Maybe the birds were
only scared away
when something was moving.
(CHATTERING)
That was it!
But how could he
get it to move?
He also needed more seeds.
(WHINES)
Seeds were easy.
Making a scarecrow move
was hard.
I heard a guy named
Quixote opened
a new bakery up ahead.
Hungry?
(EXCLAIMS)
Huh?
NARRATOR: It was
the biggest pinwheel
George had ever seen.
MYH: Pretty neat, huh?
Uh-huh!
MYH: It's a windmill.
Ooh!
Yep. It grinds
my grain for me.
(CHATTERS)
(CHATTERING EXCITEDLY)
Let me show you
how it works.
When the wind blows,
it pushes the sails.
Just like wind pushes
a sailboat along the water.
But since sails
are attached to the mill,
instead of moving forward
they spin around.
Ooh. (CHUCKLES)
Some people use windmills
to make electricity.
Oh
I use mine
to make flour and butter!
MYH: Well, I'll be
What do you think, George?
Ooh!
QUIXOTE:
That's the butter churner.
Oh.
QUIXOTE: Those stones
grind the grain
into flour for bread.
Bread and butter
go together like
Well, (CHUCKLES)
Bread and butter.
Aha!
Mmm.
That is pretty amazing.
My windmill?
(GULPS)
No, your butter.
I didn't know
a windmill could do that.
Oh, you can use
a windmill to move
just about anything.
Huh?
Yes, this one's
a pepper mill.
(SNIFFS AND SNEEZES)
(CHATTERS)
NARRATOR: That was it.
George could use a windmill
to make his scarecrow move.
(COOING)
And George's garden
could finally grow.
(WHOOPING AND CHATTERING)
(COOING)
Oh.
Oh!
He was gonna need
a bigger windmill.
Luckily, George knew
a perfect place
for finding things.
The recycling room.
(LAUGHS)
Hmm.
NARRATOR:
Now what did Mr. Quixote say?
If you're building a windmill,
you'll need sails.
A sturdy base.
(CHATTERS)
Something for the sails
to spin around
and something to make
the scarecrow move.
(GASPS)
(CHUCKLES)
Now that he had
the windmill parts,
he just had
to put them together.
(COOS)
Huh?
(HUMMING)
NARRATOR: Time to take
those sails for a spin.
Oh!
But his windmill
stopped short.
So George gave
his windmill a leg up.
Four of them.
Aha!
(WHOOPING)
When you're making
a windmill
(EXCLAIMS) Ooh!
It's easy to get wrapped up
in your work.
(CHATTERS)
So George gave
his sails a trim.
His sails moved,
but his windmill didn't.
Huh.
What was he missing?
QUIXOTE: When the wind blows,
it pushes the sails.
NARRATOR:
And then George realized,
these were too loose.
So he got more sticks
and attached the sails
with tape.
Aha!
Hmm
George could push his sails,
but the wind couldn't.
Huh?
Oh!
Mr. Quixote's
sails were stiff.
Oh
Maybe that gave the wind
more to push against.
(EXCLAIMS)
So George made his sail stiff.
(CHATTERS)
(COOING)
(EXCLAIMS IN DELIGHT)
All his windmill needed now
was a scarecrow mover.
(CHUCKLES)
At last, his windmill
was finished
and it was a good thing too.
Huh?
Because he was out of tape.
Now he just had
to wait for the wind.
(EXCLAIMING)
And get a weight
for his windmill.
Huh
(GRUNTING)
(GRUNTING AND PANTING)
Aha!
(COOING)
(CHUCKLES)
George had done it.
He'd made his scarecrow move.
But he did feel bad
for Compass and his friends.
(EXCLAIMS)
(PANTING)
(CHUCKLES)
(EXCLAIMING)
(COOING)
Now the pigeons
could eat their food
while George grew his.
